about me

Okay, so I have done some editing and split the book in two, thus I have also adjusted the pitches.

Blind Fate is the first of three YA Fantasy books.

Please be honest and constructive with feedback.

Thanks

In terms of reading, generally speaking I am a Fantasy and Young Adult reader. I hasten to add that, for me, YA means the main characters are in their late teens. I struggle to constructively review books with younger protagonists.

I have experimented outside of these genres but I am always drawn back in, it seems. Therefore please bear that in mind when asking for reviews.

I will return any constructive read you do on Blind Fate but I have often found reviews outside my comfort zones tend to be off the mark slightly. You have been warned! :)

I will not return backings so please do not ask. I base backing on whether I think the book is close to publishable or not.

I like to read things properly before I make comments but I don't have a lot of time to read so please don't expect instant replies to requests. I will fulfill every request though...eventually.

Blind Fate

Danielle Pollok

Fate took drastic measures, now Destiny is using the loop hole to set in motion something that could make or break the human race.


Some 200 years ago the Fates took a drastic step to stop a war that no thread within the pattern of their world could end. Now, when that world faces a war of a different kind, the Lady of the Light takes advantage of the hole they created in the universe and changes the lives of seven lost souls.

In the instant that Rianne’s mundane life is turned upside down she finds herself ripped from the world she knows and plunged into a world on the brink of war they don’t see coming. As the Dark Lord creeps closer to an escape Rianne and her band of unintentional heroes struggle to find their place in a world entirely unfamiliar to them.

When the chance to go home and leave this craziness behind comes up will they take it? Will a part in a threatening war be more appealing than the life back home? Rianne was born to this role but she must face the man that put her there before she can truly embrace it.

Sam, I found your book on the lending library. I really like the flow of the prose. Eliza has a little spunk, which I like and she also shows a bit of the fear she is feeling leaving everything she knows. I like the mystery surrounding Ryan, although I am not always convinced by Eliza being ab... view book

Phil, I found you on the lending library forum thread and I have to say the pitch sucked me in - so that can't be bad! :) I enjoyed reading this. The chapters are a nice length (I read the prologue and first two chapters for now). I really don't have a lot of coment to make. I think your ch... view book

Elizabeth, I found your book on the Fantasy read Swaps thread and I'm so glad I did. The story you pitch is an interesting twist on Arthurian tales (as so many have said before me). I was, however a little hesitant on how you were going to pull it off. I got drawn in almost instantly. Like so... view book

Kate, Came across the Lending Library so thought I would take a look at your book. Jeremiah is a character you can get behind and Ezra is one you equally dispise. I did wonder what made him like that though. He seems happy with his greedy lot but then he's drinking whiskey first thing in the m... view book

Veronica, I think I found your book on a Fantasy Read Swaps thread, I've lost track it's been so long since I could get down to some actual reading! Anyway, I hope the following helps and if not, well it's all opinion anyway :) I like the premise of your book. I like the mixture of romance and... view book
